The attention
of the Nigeria Police Force has been drawn to a report by Sahara Reporters, New
York on August 26, 2016 captioned Inspector General Idris accused of Massive looting,
violation of public trust.
2. The Nigeria Police Force would ordinarily not
join issue on news item that has no substance and completely false, but to put
the record straight;
the report was studied and all the allegations
asserted against the Inspector General of Police, Ag. IGP Ibrahim K. Idris NPM,
mni and the Nigeria Police Force in the write up were found out to be
completely false, misleading and malicious in its entirety, and obviously the
hand work of distractors and mischief makers, whose intention is to distract
the Inspector General of Police from carrying out its statutory duties of
ensuring that Nigeria is secured and crime free.
3. The
Inspector General of Police, Ag. IGP Ibrahim K. Idris NPM, mni have served in
various capacities within the Nigeria Police Force and International
Communities without blemish. The IGP is focused and determined to accomplish
his statutory responsibilities to all Nigerians and continue to serve his
country and will not be distracted by distractors
who take advantage of the media to launch a personal attack and campaign of
calumny against his personality and the Nigeria Police Force.
4. The
Nigeria Police Force wishes to enjoin members of the general public and other
persons who must have read the report to disregard and discountenance the story
as totally unfounded without any iota of truth.
5. The media,
most especially the new/social media outfits are hereby implored not to allow
malicious/ mischief makers to take advantage of them to misinform and mislead
the public. The Nigeria Police Force will continue to partner with the media,
other stakeholders and the general public to ensure that Nigeria is safe for
every Nigerian and visitors alike.
